Description of the ADO and Qt interface, which are used for accessing OLE DB or ODBC-compatible databases from CTRL. |
|
A WinCC OA system might be exposed to different type of attacks. An illegal WinCC OA system could connect to the distribution manager or hackers could manipulate WinCC OA messages. In order to prevent eavesdropping or different types of attacks, a secured authentication was developed. The Kerberos based authentication allows each WinCC OA component a verification of the identity of another component. WinCC OA servers will verify the identity of clients and clients will verify the identity of servers. |
|
Description of the WinCC OA API (Application Programming Interface), which enables this process control system to be extended with special managers. |
|
The Audit trail panel allows the user administration to track important changes (e.g. set points, parameters etc.). |
|
The WinCC OA Channel Manager is a standalone module that hosts a number of channels and devices of a client application (typically driver). |
|
Description of the COM (Component Object Model) interface in WinCC OA. Furthermore you can find the available methods of the COM Manager in this chapter. |
|
Description of the alive mechanism, which monitors the connection to the managers in WinCC OA. |
|
Description of the extension that allows C++ functions to be added to the programming language. |
|
Description of how distributed systems are set up with WinCC OA. |
|
The encryption of panels and CTRL scripts/libraries allows encrypting your panels or scripts and thus protect your knowledge and work. |
|
Displaying WinCC OA data via intranet or web. Description of the WAP function in WinCC OA. |
|
The WinCC OA Information Server (IS) allows the export of arbitrary WinCC OA data to an external database (DB). For simple reports use the ExcelAddIn. |
|
For configuring the entire maintenance of a system, controlled by WinCC OA, including operation-time counter, operations counter and maintenance protocol. |
|
Information on WinCC OA Message Compression. |
|
Creation of a panel topology: all panels in a project are organized into a hierarchy. This structuring simplifies the project enormously, especially when dealing with large process installations. Special functions then check the constructed topology (e.g. can the panels be accessed from individual buttons as defined in the panel topology). Automatic generation of group alerts based on the panel topology: group alerts are defined that cover the whole panel hierarchy, so that any alerts occurring in the panels can be reported up through the hierarchy and displayed graphically according to definable priority ranges. |
|
Feature for using HDB and RAIMA parallel with a RDB. |
|
Managing the set points of several DPEs and send them to the periphery. |
|
Description of how redundant systems are set up with WinCC OA. |
|
Description of redundant network connections between several managers in WinCC OA and configuration. |
|
When using the command line option -silentMode, the user interface runs in the background without a graphical display. It allows you to print any panels. |
|
Create, configure and administrate a number of schedules of either time or event triggered actions. |
|
Send and receive SMS messages from WinCC OA. |
|
Description of the system overview panel for the diagnosis of a WinCC OA system. |
|
Until now the archive tables in the WinCC OA database had a fixed structure. A table always comprised the same specific columns. Using the user defined archive groups you are no longer restricted to a fixed structure but you can create your own archive groups. |
|
Allows the visualization and operation of WinCC OA panels within all common web browsers on personal computers or selective mobile end devices (notebooks, netbooks) that have access to the network. |
|
Creating panels with the XML format in WinCC OA and also converting WinCC OA panels into XML format. |
|
The WinCC OA CtrlXmlRpc is a CONTROL extension including XmlRpc functions. |
